Ingenuity’s Speakeasy 2.0 is coming up fast! The 9 PM to 1 AM party will feature drinks, dancing, and a lineup of some fantastic DJs. If you haven’t been to the bridge space you’re in for a treat. The cavernous, industrial space opens out onto an open air bridge span with fantastic views of the city. Tickets are $15 in advance and $20 at the door. That includes two drink tickets! It’s a great deal for what’s going to be one of the most talked about parties of the year. 8:30-10pm = Misterbradleyp 10-11pm = Stout XTC 11-12am = Fuzz 12-1am = P-10

Hi Cleveland Bloggers! Have you blogged about Ingenuity in the past or plan to in the future? Want a sneak peak into what’s going on at Ingenuityfest 2010? We’re inviting bloggers to take a tour of the Bridge Space with our Artistic Director James Levin and Executive Director Paula Grooms to ask questions, take photographs, poke around, send a tweet or two…we’ve even got some free t-shirts for you! We’ll be doing this in March on a date TBD, but please (ASAP) send a note to jkrouse@ingenuitycleveland.org with your name and the name of your blog for further details.

Watch it on Academic Earth Some men see things as they are and say, why? I dream of things the way they never were and say, why not? – Robert F. Kennedy, after George Bernard Shaw Professor Barry Nalebuff shares the insights from his book Why Not? How to Use Everyday Ingenuity to Solve Problems Big and Small.

Interesting video from CNN on Jane McGonigal.  She’s an online game designer that is working on games that can solve real-world problems.   It’s an interesting  take on how creativity and fun tap into some very serious issues of our time.

Don’t forget, this Friday is another artist tour of the bridge.  It’s a great way to get to know the space before you make a proposal. We will be conducting artist walkthroughs monthly. All will take place at 1:30PM. Artists can meet James Levin at the Engineers Service Garage on the Superior Viaduct, across from St Malachai Church. Tour Dates all at 1:30 PM: January 22 Feb 19 March 19 April 16 Our call to artist form is up as well.  If you need a hard copy, we’ll be posting a PDF download later this week. See you on the bridge!
